The World Series matchup has already generated several names like the Liberty Series, the New Jersey Turnpike Series and the Amtrak Series. Using the Jersey Turnpike, a trip from Citizens Bank Park to Yankee Stadium is 108 miles — 1 hour 44 minutes without traffic. The Phillies traveled to New York by Amtrak train on Monday, leaving after a rally in downtown Philadelphia and arriving at Penn Station at about 6:30 p.m.. But as seasoned frugal travelers between Philadelphia and New York know, you would not have to take Amtrak at all to get from stadium to stadium. A fan leaving Citizens Bank Park around 2 p.m. Monday could have gotten to Yankee Stadium for less than $25 in less than four hours. http://bats.blogs.nytimes.com/2009/10/27/making-tracks-from-philadelphia-to-the-bronx/
